Week 5: Carpe Diem


Everyone has different things that make them come alive, and some people have certain things in common that make them come alive. Dance is thing that makes me come alive. If I didn’t have dance things just wouldn’t be the same. Dance allows me to take how my stress and emotions out in the studio. I like the fact that a lot of my friends think of dance the same way as I think of it. I think it helps when you have friends with stuff in common with you, especially if you the same passion for something. There are a lot of kids that might not have a strong passion for something that brings joy to their life. I just think that’d be horrible not to have something like that. It just makes me think if I didn’t have dance, or if dance was taken away from me, I’d be extremely sad, and angry. Dance is the one thing that is always there for me, and it never lets me down. I know I can dance whenever I’m down or feeling bad, and it always makes me feel better. I know other people feel the same way about their hobbies, because it’s just something that makes us happy and something always gives us joy when we’re doing it. I’ve tried doing other hobbies and sports but nothing as ever compared to dance, that just showed me that nothing could replace dancing for me. I’ll choose to stay with dance throughout high school and maybe some in college. I don’t want to give up the great feeling it gives me.

Week 4: Fraction Friends?


I think Rohn has a good point and I agree with him, because the five people you spend the most time with you start acting like them and you get used to the way that they act, and even if they do weird things you get used to it even if other people don’t like it. The five people I spend the most time with would be Jennifer, Brooke, Paige, probably my mom, and my boyfriend Bryan. I’ve come to accept that they’re all different in their own way, sometimes they can get annoying, they may get annoyed a the littlest things, they may be a clean freak, or a complete slob, but none of that bothers me because I accept them for who they are and I’d never want to change them! Some may say that if those things would usually bother me, but now they don’t that I’ve change, but I honestly don’t call that changing I call that accepting the people I love for who they are. Sometimes the way you act can be affected by the people you surround yourself with, and the people that I surround myself with I believe they’ve made me a better person than who I was before I had them in my life. Everyone needs a motivation to become a better person and there’s no other way to be motivated than by the people you love most, and the people that are always there for you through anything. I wouldn’t change anything about them, and I wouldn’t want to spend my time with anyone else.
